Well--

"There ain't no covid no more--there never was no covid!"

It protects me from a wide variety of things.

"What, you believe in aliens too?"

Sure, why not?


An actual conversation I had with a trucker the other day.

    BTW, you're welcome to not engage in unhelpful convos in order to spare your sanity. I can't imagine you changing his mind, although I understand that ignoring people isn't always possible.

    Also thank you for masking.

      Oh I was a hostage in this situation, I was at work. I don't mind dealing with silly stuff though, breaks up the day. And this particular guy has always got something wacky to say. His demeanor makes me think he's maybe always a lil buzzed or high or something, which would also fit with the fact that it's always his partner driving and not him.

      I've had coworkers tell me he freaks them out, like they think he might get violent. I never got that impression from him myself. He's just one o' them cranks. His partner's a real chilled out old lady so maybe she's keeping the vibes in check lol

        Sometimes it really feels like women do so much to keep their partners sane and on the rails. It's kinda unfair honestly.
